Abstract

Minimum Chebyshev distance computation between base-pair and structures cost most time while comparing RNA secondary structures. We present a fast algorithm for speeding up the minimum Chebyshev distance computation. Based on the properties of RNA dot plots and Chebyshev distance, this algorithm uses binary search to reduce the size of base pairs and compute Chebyshev distances rapidly. Compared with O() time complexity of the original algorithm, the new one takes nearly [O(log), O(1)] time.
